Great value for the money
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this TV as an open box item. The only thing it didn’t have that I needed was the remote. I bought a remote on Amazon for $7. This receiver has everything including AirPlay, Bluetooth, etc..

Great Receiver
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the third Onkyo Reciever I have owned and the best by far. It connects to my Bose Surround and Samsung TV with ease. Sound quality is great. You feel like you are at the movies. I love the 2nd zone as we have speakers on our back porch and this allows you to listen to music outside and someone can watch TV inside at the same time and have separate volume control. It has multiple HDMI ports and allows one line out to the TV for gaming and DVD.

Excellent upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I upgraded my Onkyo TX-SR608 and this was a breeze to support ARC and 4K. Simple setup, great sound with home theater system. I have not optimized for music yet, so my thoughts on its music ability are a bit mixed. I have paired with 6 Klipsch Quintets plus center and sub. Star Wars 4k sounds ridiculously crisp. I haven't found a setting for music that I like yet. I had this problem with my previous Onkyo until I played with the settings a lot. So I'm dropping my ease of use here as it really takes some poking around to tune it to music.

Worthy upgrade over Sony receivers.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Onkyo has finally caught and surpass Sony's excellent STR 1080 AV receiver. Deliver similar boom but Onkyo is just tad big more refine with the latest features. Is it it better than a Denon IC 3000 or better series? No but it's close, mid tone lacks a bit, can sound a bit harsh when compared to Denon, but Denon IC more less for music lovers with a keen ear to hearing mid tones. To conclude if you're in the market for good home theater AVR without breaking the bank look no further than this masterpiece.

Great 4k receiver
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had to get a 4k receiver to go with my 4k TV and I have to say, especially when using the PS5's 3D audio, it sounds incredible. My last 3 receivers have all been Onkyo and I only got new ones to handle newer technology I found myself wanting/needing. They have all been fantastic but this one is the best so far!

Wow!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this receiver, I had on older onkyo that I have had for 15 years and is still working, so I thought that I need to upgrade to the latest receivers to take advantage of the 4k pass thru and I decided to stay with onkyo since I've had good results with them. Let me tell you the power this thing puts out is an understatement, it makes the bass from my subwoofer sound so clean and authoritive. I have to rewatch my blurays to see what I was missing in bass, I am very satisfied with my purchase.

Easy Set up and Great Receiver.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It has been 30 years since I wired a receiver, and receivers have certainly changed! Yeah I am old! I wired 3 Klipsch speakers, and a subwoofer, plus a Sony TV an an Apple TV streaming box. Once a plugged everything in, I followed the set up instructions. Voila! worked the first time. Sound and picture is great. Highly recommend

Great Stereo Receiver.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fantastic stereo receiver. Great functionality at a reasonable price. The only glitch I have seen is that sometimes I have to remove the device from Bluetooth settings on my mobile device and re-add it in order to reconnect. It doesn't happen often and I'm really not sure if that's an issue with my mobile device or not. Easy to work around the few times I have experienced the issue. Setup was a breeze.

Very Happy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Since I had been a very good boy this year and my old Samsung surround was starting to fail, I decided to get myself a christmas present.......so I pulled the trigger on this one and I'm very glad I did. First thing I liked was I hooked it up and it updated it's firmware. I like that because that tells me I'm going to be able to hang on to this unit a little longer. Set up was a breeze and the sound is awesome.

Good Receiver for the Money
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We replaced a previous version of this same receiver. The previous one lasted about 9 years, so I would consider it a good value for the money.

Excellent sound.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replaces a 13 year old Onkyo 705 receiver. I first check for sound improvement through listening to recordings of vocal duos and groups to see how well I can distinguish singers better and whether words are clearer. The 696 is excellent on both account. I find the sound very pleasant as well.Also hear noticeably more detail in jazz and classical recordings I know well. Note: I have not compared the 696 to new receivers. I also have not used the 696's advanced features yet.
